I came back from yet another harp school.

It was exciting, exhausting and full of juicy info on Scottish music from centuries ago.

I also got some professional advice how to practice, which I am going to share in an article in the near future.

 

Summer update

piątek, 12 sierpnia 2011 19:46

I am getting ready for the summer harp school. All I have to do is wait until Wednesday. Not a long wait :)

Anyway - I realized I didn't write too much on this news page, so I thought I'll bring you up to date.

The contest finished, won by Kaja Kasprowicz and her song lyrics inspired by H. P. Lovecraft's "The Journey to unknown Kadath" . We haven't decided yet on the date of the concert, but probably in autumn I will visit Warsaw.

Now my thoughts are wandering around the upcoming Scoil na gClairseach. I'm happy I'll be able to see all the wonderful people again, and have the honor of learning fromthe best. Ann Heymann, Siobhan Armstrong, Andrew Lawrence King this year joined by Barnaby Brown who will help us look into the Scottish pipe tradition and learn some things about Ceòl Mór - the Great Music of the Scottish Highlands. I am looking forward to that.

See you in Ireland!

 

Six days left for voting for your favourite contest entry!

Hello there!

You might have noticed that I published some videos: well some of them (the ones you can see HERE) are my final four contest entries. Some time ago, when I played the concert at Pyrkon I asked all my friends to help me pick the best one. You too can vote!

I know, that the language barrier might be a problem, but I will tell a couple of words on every entry.

1.  Elen sila lumen omentielvo - lyrics by Anna Betlejewska. A simple, yet stunning ballad summoning the spirit of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. The bard sings about the old days and wishes for the star to shine over the hour of our meeting.

2. Wiosna (Spring) - lyrics by Kaja Kasprowicz, inspired by "A journey to the unknown Kadath" by H. P. Lovecraft. The silver light shines onto the sea of leaves, where the moon, like a boat sails across the sky. The moon sailors read the stars before the fire of dusk sets the sky ablaze. I don't want to sleep on a night like this.

3. Wody głębokie jak niebo (The waters as deep as the sky) - lyrics by Mirosław Wibrys, inspired by A. Brzezińska's anthology "Wody głebokie jak niebo". I ask my love how may we find each other, again and again if we are forever changing and changed into something else.

4. Niekołysanka (Not-lullaby) - lyrics by Aleksandra Balcerak, inspired by the Moomins from T. Jansson. Homek - Toft from the books, has a very vivid imagination - he brings to life the things he reads about. This little not-lullaby teaches him, that only he has the power to harness his dreams.
